Abstract: The invention provides a composition of matter designated tissue-derived growth inhibitor-1 (TGI-1) which comprises a protein which is a dimer composed of two polypeptides each having an apparent molecular weight of about 13,000 daltons and being joined to each other by disulfide bonds. TGI-1 has the property of inhibiting the growth of human tumor cells and of an established mink lung cell line (CCL 64) but not the growth of normal human foreskin fibroblasts and has an apparent molecular weight of about 26,000 daltons. The invention additionally provides a composition of matter designated tissue-derived growth inhibitor-2 (TGI-2) which is a protein which has the property of inhibiting the growth of human tumor cells and of an established mink lung cell line (CCL 64) but not the growth of normal human foreskin fibroblasts. TGI-2 has an apparent molecular weight of about 26,000 daltons and is a dimer composed of two polypeptides each of which has an apparent molecular weight of about 13,000 daltons and each is joined to the other by disulfide bonds under nonreducing conditions. This invention also provides a protein having tumor growth activity comprising the 112 amino acids shown in Figure 29 beginning with alanine at positon 1 and ending with serine at position 112. A nucleic acid molecule encoding the protein is also provided. A polypeptide designated CM-1 and a polypeptide recoverable from conditioned media of A431 cells are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for improving the chemical and mechanical durability of a low emissivity coated article comprising a substrate and a low emissivity coating comprising successive layers of an antireflective metal oxide, an infrared reflective metal, a metal primer and an antireflective metal oxide. The method comprises heating the coated article at a temperature below the strain point of the substrate for a sufficient time and at a sufficient temperature to anneal the coating to reduce structural defects and chemical reactions. Since the temperature is maintained below the strain point of the substrate, annealing the coating to improve its chemical and mechanical durability does not introduce permanent stresses into the substrate, typically glass.

Abstract: Neurotransmission by excitatory amino acids (EAAs) such as glutamate is mediated via membrane-bound surface receptors. This neurotransmission has been found to be modulatcd by certain modulatory proteins. DNA coding for a family of such modulatory proteins has now been isolated and the modulatory proteins have been characterized. Herein described are recombinant cell lines which produce these modulatory proteins as heterologous membrane-bound products. Also described are related aspects of the invention, which are of commercial significance, including the use of cell lines which express the modulatory proteins either homomerically, or heteromerically in a complex with an NMDA receptor, as a tool for discovery of compounds which affect the function of the modulatory proteins.

Abstract: A transmission power control method of a mobile station in a CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) system which primarily controls transmission power of the mobile station by using a closed loop control which enables high accuracy power control. When the received power at the base station of a signal from the mobile station suddenly increases owing to the state of buildings surrounding the mobile station, the transmission power of the mobile station must be quickly reduced to prevent the interference to other mobile stations. The mobile station measures an average value of the received power per transmission power control period of a desired signal from the base station, and detects the difference ΔRSSI between the current average value and that of one of the previous transmission power control periods. If ΔRSSI exceeds a reference power difference ΔP th , transmission power P T  corresponding to ΔRSSI is set by using an open loop transmission power control to quickly reduce the transmission power of the mobile station. If ΔRSSI is lower than ΔP th , the transmission power P T  is determined in accordance with the transmission power control bit sent from the base station.

Abstract: Methods for using tip generated vortices to improve performance of foils. These methods include generating substantially streamwise beneficial vortex (74) near the outboard end (60) of a foil (82). This beneficial vortex (74) spins in the opposite direction of an induced drag vortex (62), and is used to create an upwash field (76) which neutralizes induced drag by deflecting the flow behind the trailing edge (56) at an upward angle. Upwash field (76) causes the lift vector (118) on the foil (82) to tilt forward, thereby creating a forward directed force of induced thrust upon the foil (82). Beneficial vortex (74) is also used to contain and compress the high pressure field existing along the attacking surface of the foil (82). Embodiments include a twist (66) along the span of a foil (82b), an anhedral tip droop having a divergent axis of droop curvature (86), a movable vortex flap (102), a cone shaped vortex flap network (162). Methods for reducing overall tip vorticity are disclosed.

Abstract: An exhaust purification device of an engine providing a NO x  absorbent arranged in the exhaust passage. An O 2  sensor generating a current proportional to the air-fuel ratio is arranged in the engine exhaust passage downstream of the NO x  absorbent. The amount of NO x  actually absorbed in the NO x  absorbent at the time of release of the NO x  is calculated on the basis of the output signal of this O 2  sensor. On the basis of this calculated amount of NO x , correction is made so that the estimated amount of NO x  represents the actual amount of absorption of NO x . When this corrected estimated amount of NO x  reaches a set value, the action of releasing the NO x  from the NO x  absorbent is carried out.

Abstract: A heat-resistant sheet, which has slits formed therein, is provided between a fixing roller and a pressure member. The heat-resistant sheet, which has a thickness of 300 µm, is coated with a synthetic resin material having superior toner-releasing and heat-resisting properties, or incorporates such a synthetic resin material inside thereof. Here, a recording material is transported between the fixing roller and the heat-resistant sheet. As the surface temperature of the fixing roller increases, the heat-resistant sheet starts expanding gradually, causing its surface to be deflected. However, when the fixing roller reaches a set temperature, the expanded portion of the heat-resistant sheet and its surface deflection are all absorbed by the slits, and the slit width becomes zero. Therefore, it is possible to keep an optimal nip width while maintaining a proper applied pressure of the pressure member, without the necessity of having to use a heat-releasing device or increase the thickness of the heat-resistant sheet. As a result, a superior fixing operation is available by using the heat-resistant sheet having the slits.

Abstract: A processing unit notifies a drive unit of a designated number N (= 1, 2,....). The drive unit supplies a drive signal of a frequency f 0  to a target measurement device, and supplies a modulation signal of a frequency N·f 0  + Δf to an optical modulator. In this state, a continuous emission light beam is emitted from a light source, incident on an E-O probe sequentially through a polarizer and a first optical system, influenced by a periodical voltage waveform generated at a target measurement portion at a fundamental period 1/f 0  to modulate the polarized state, and output from the E-O probe. The optical signal whose polarized state is modulated is input to the optical modulator and modulated. Thereafter, a polarization direction is selected by an optical selection unit, and the optical signal is input to an photodetector 510 and heterodyne-detected. The processing unit reproduces the waveform of the voltage signal generated at the target measurement portion by calculation of Fourier transform on the basis of the obtained photodetection signal and displays the waveform.
